Wang Tong rode her bicycle back home. After parking the bicycle, she carried the textbooks and reference books that Lu De Min had returned, walked into the hall, and looked around.
At this time, her mother had already taken a shower, changed into her pajamas, and was lying on the couch reading a book. Her mother's legs were so white, and her chest was so beautiful, big and soft white. Wang Tong felt that her own chest was a bit small compared to her mother's. Her mother said that it would grow larger after marriage and childbirth.
"Mom!"
"Baby, you're back!"
"Huh, are these books Little Lu returned to you? Did he finish reading them?" Qu Lin noticed the pile of books in her daughter's arms.
Wang Tong nodded and smiled, "Yes! He's finished studying. Let me borrow the history, physics, and biology books from him!"
"How long has it been? He's already finished. He learns quite fast! He's a smart kid. Maybe he can really get into college next year!" Qu Lin expressed her admiration.
"I think he has a good chance to get in too - Mom, I'm going to put the books away!"
"Okay! Go ahead!"
Wang Tong carried the books and walked into the study.
Since Wang Tong knew that Lu De Min would need the textbooks and reference books for the other subjects sooner or later, she had already organized them together in her spare time a few days ago.
Therefore, this time, she didn't need to search as long as the first time. The textbooks and reference books she needed were quickly found, packed in a bag, and she went back to accompany her mother.
"Baby, look at this!" Qu Lin pointed to the washed fruits on the table when her daughter came out.
"Wow! There's my favorite apples again!" Wang Tong really liked these apples and picked up one to bite into.
Qu Lin looked at her daughter with a smile and said, "Baby, do you know who sent these apples?"
Wang Tong curiously asked, "Who? Do I know them?"
Qu Lin nodded, "Of course you know! Little Lu sent them!"
"Ah? Mom, you mean these apples are from De Min to you?" Wang Tong's pretty face showed surprise, then turned red.
"Baby, why are you reacting like this?" Qu Lin questioned suspiciously.
"Mom! I'm so embarrassed! Last time, wasn't there one apple left? I took it to the hospital and was going to eat it myself, but at noon, I met him going to see Grandpa Sun De Xiao. I heard he hadn't eaten, so I gave it to him..."
"What's the big deal? It's just an apple!"
"It's different! He sent it to you, and I sent it back to him! It went back and forth and ended up with the original owner, it feels so strange!" Wang Tong still felt embarrassed.
"Maybe he didn't recognize the apple!"
"He must have recognized it. His expression was a little strange at the time, and now I understand what it meant. Also, the apples from De Min's family are big, fresh, round, and too easy to recognize! By the way, does he know you're my mom?"
Qu Lin thought for a moment and shook her head affirmatively, "He probably doesn't know. Maybe he thinks we are neighbors!"
"That's right! Mom looks so young and beautiful, who would believe you have a daughter as old as me!"
"Mom loves hearing that!" Qu Lin was very happy when she heard her daughter praise her for being young and beautiful.
...
The courtyard.
After finishing dinner, Lu De Min left the courtyard.
Unlike usual, he didn't take his usual route.
He learned the approximate location of the pigeon market (black market) from Master Sun, and planned to get up early tomorrow morning to explore the pigeon market and spend the cash Master Sun left him. If he couldn't spend this cash before the second edition of the 1955 RMB came out, and he didn't dare to exchange it in large amounts, it would become obsolete.
Now he was scouting the area to ensure that he could find the pigeon market smoothly tomorrow morning and buy supplies.
After a simple tour, Lu De Min felt confident and left the area.
During this process.
The prompts in his mind didn't stop.
He was making progress all the time.
【Ding!】
【Footwork +1】
【Footwork +1】
【Footwork +1】
【Footwork +1】
...
Before nightfall.
Lu De Min returned to the courtyard.
He continued to exercise, then entered his personal space to take a shower. After showering, he returned to his room and began to study.
He had already returned the textbooks and reference books he borrowed from Wang Tong.
Fortunately, he also borrowed some textbooks and reference books from Yan Bu Gui.
He could continue to study.
His Russian language learning was progressing rapidly thanks to the system's assistance.
Considering the current political and international environment, Lu De Min decided that he would still choose Russian for the foreign language exam next year.
Speaking of Russian language learning, Lu De Min had an idea.
Around eleven o'clock that night.
Lu De Min took his Russian language book out of the courtyard and walked to the latrine next to the alley.
There was no latrine in the courtyard.
The latrine was built in the alley for the nearby residents to use together.
There was a lamp next to the latrine.
Lu De Min stood under the latrine's light and started practicing Russian.
【Ding!】
【Russian knowledge level +1】
【Russian knowledge level +1】
【Russian knowledge level +1】
【Russian knowledge level +1】
...
【Ding!】
【Russian spoken language level +1】
【Russian spoken language level +1】

...
Why did he come outside to learn Russian?
Besides avoiding disturbing his neighbors while studying in the house.
There was another reason. Lu De Min wanted others to see his diligence and lay the groundwork for his good performance in the college entrance exam next year.
This way, his good performance next year wouldn't seem so abrupt.
...
Finally, someone came.
It was a familiar face from the courtyard.
"Huh!"
The person saw that Lu De Min was not sleeping late at night, but was actually standing under the street lamp, not knowing what he was doing.
He rubbed his eyes and walked closer.
